The Summer Schedule Affects the PGS

As the summer descends upon us with its heat, humidity, afternoon rains, and threats of hurricanes; it brings also the effects of summer travel. We at the PGS feel the effects of summer schedules and that is reflected in our schedule of events.

The number of classes we present at the Largo Public Library between now and the end of August is still sizable, but certainly less than our fall, winter, and spring list. Over the summer we will concentrate on the basics of getting started in Genealogy and using Ancestry.com and Familysearch.org. Also, the Family History Writer's Workshop will continue at 6pm the fourth Tuesday of each month. You can see the full schedule on the PGS website (http://www.rootsweb.ancestry.com/~flpgs/index.htm) or pick up a handout in the Genealogy Center.

This Blog will also be affected by the summer schedule. I will be traveling for the next couple of months and will be without regular Internet access. That means that the number of posts will be reduced. I'll try and keep up the flow of hints, tips, and recommended websites, but the frequency will certainly be less than the daily posts I try to provide normally. Keep checking, however, because I hope you will continue to find items of value. Expect the pace to pick up again in August.
